“a life part of Lodz-by-hone-days”
Feb 2020
we stayed 2 days in Lodz and found time to go for a 1 hour walk to Księży Młyn area. It was a visit to real past which is under nice and extensive conservations works. A visit there gave us a real feeling of Lodż city 100 years ago and consider it much more interesting and valuable then visiting Manifaktura.
“A first workers village in Lodz”
Oct 2019
This old workers place, very modern in the past with kindergarten for children and nice flats for worker in the past, lost the good reputation during the socialistic time. Since several years this area will be renovated and original inhabitants moved: nova day you will find galleries and some other artistic shops and nice coffee house collecting new generation and be new meeting point by walk in the city. New residents of loft flats and new workers of IT Companies are coming there for brake and many tourist are visiting the old fabric and village architecture.

Must see!!
Aug 2012 • Family
Definitely worth visiting.lots of work still in progress but what has been renovated looks stunning.
The whole Ksiezy Mlyn is worth stopping by and having proper look.
There is a lot of history in this place and I would recommend to read some basic historical information prior visiting the site. Some old parts are preserved as they were more than 100 years ago there is no asphalt on the road. Don't miss it if you are in Lodz.

Many of the buildings are now fabulous flats

I read a lot about it and if you want to enjoy this area you need to do the same. Looking at hose building with understanding their history is a great lesson.

This complex is large
Nov 2018 • Couples
The buildings are monumental in size, especially the converted main structure. Other structures are in varying stages of being brought back to life. As a historical industrial site it is interesting to compare with the UK, where squalid conditions were endured by the workforce at home during the 19th century. Here, everything seem to have been provided for the workforce. Interesting to wander around the area.

To be honest - nothing to watch!
Sep 2016 • Couples
Ok, there are some small buildings made of red bricks. Nothing special. Workers used to live here. So what? You can't go inside. They are not monumental, they are not towers you can climb. Just few little red houses made of bricks. I used to live in Lodz and this place was described as legendary. But hey, nothing special.

Important part of Poland's history, must see
Jul 2016 • Solo
If possible, see Wajda's film "The Promised Land" to get a perspective on the history of this area of Poland. The size of the industrial complex is overwhelming. Try and place yourself in the era where thousands of people were at work in the mill. Other reviewers have talked about the contrast of old and new. What I find interesting about the contrast of this area is how it is being repurposed for the 21st century. Make sure to visit the Herbst House and the Museum for a perspective on the industrialist's life.

It's a huge complex of old industrial buildings. Some of the are already renovated, some are still under renovation. It's unique place in Europe

It is nothing there.... Just old street. Old buildings made of bricks... Nothing special, but it gives one of the kind vibes. I have never seen anything like that.

Great but not when it's dark
Enjoy the old and modern architecture in the same place and the park right next to it, but try not to stay there when it's getting dark.
